A desktop entry that already lives in ~/.local/share/applications is the
user's own file, patched in place with the original kept aside. It used to
get the same X-MCA-Generated marker as a shadow copy, which made the next
scan skip it, fall back to the system entry, and overwrite the user's file
with a shadow - and then delete it on revert instead of restoring it.
The two cases now carry different markers. Only a shadow is skipped by the
scan and deleted when undoing; an entry patched in place stays in the scan
and is restored from its backup.
Also: resolve the applications screen's labels once instead of per row per
keypress, and drop code nothing calls.
Middle-click autoscroll for every Chromium-based application on the system:
Electron and CEF applications, Chromium-based browsers, Flatpaks, Spotify and
Steam, plus anything installed later.
The flag goes into an Arch wrapper's <name>-flags.conf where one exists, and
into a shadowing desktop entry where it does not. Steam gets its web helper
script patched and -noverifyfiles on its launcher, because it restores its own
files otherwise. Every change is recorded so it can be taken back exactly.
